   About jean genet
We have taken a sleater kinney style indefinite hiatus. We were a queer girl/boy duo who wrote tasteless sordid songs by playing keyboard demos, drum beats and karaoke tracks with the odd badly played guitar riff. We attempted to distract audiences from our lack of talent by dressing cheap and covering our nipples in tit tape, throwing things at them, dancing and pissing on eachother. ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

Panther

Charlie is Panther, and Panther is some mutant form of Charlie. Having recently supported The Gossip, Panther’s music is hard match of damaged soul, falsetto disco and broken synth fueled freakouts which is as addictive as it is challenging. This solo affair of Charlie Salas-Humara isn’t easily ignored for his unpredictable and energetic performances tainted with throbbing bass, minimalistic hooks and jittery dance routines. Panther’s influences run deep and take as much from Pop and R&B as Free Jazz and Punk.

7Hertz

Fluid and engaging, 7 Hertz fluctuate and mutate live before your very ears. incorporating all or none of the following instruments - basson, violin, voice, double bass, french horn, glockenspiel, clarinet, mandolin, trumpet - they improvise glorious pieces with total, beautiful spontaneity. With imaginations that rival those of Tom Waits and Stravinsky this is modern “classical” music that writhes and soothes - is what they say about themselves and I'd have to agree.

Tigers!

They think they're really funky, but I don't know what kind of funk it is.
Spazmofunk? Funk-U-Like? Chevy Funk? JOHN SUTTERS AND JOHN NASH AND MATHEW MEGADICKO AND TOBY make up the band and quite frankly I find it hard to write something about them, suffice to say that there will be screaming bursts of funk piss generously applied to the walls of the P

Evangelista
Carla Bozulich (Ex. Geraldine Fibbers), and a cast of 5 musicians (including members of Silver Mt. Zion) on cello, organ, sampler, guitar, bass, and drums will intensely pump lifeblood through the veins of Evangelista's dark tales.
“I swear this to be true, Evangelista sounds like a soul, which is destined for hell, leaving the body.”
Nothing is scarier than real life. It’s scary when openness and truth snuggle up against you…

SISTER TO SISTER + THE NIGHTS WITH BEE PRINCESS PRESENT:


LORENA AND THE BOBBITS TOUR AROUND POLAND!!!


Lorena and the Bobbits started up in februar 2001 when a thunderbolt from the sky hit a

former catholic virgin schoolgirl and turned her into to a full-on, ragin', rawkin an' a

rollin' hillbilly butchdyke from hell!!!! YEEHAW!!! thank you, LORD ALLMIGHTY!!! Up to no

good and not much later, Hank, the greasy croonin' crossdressin' cowboy, hooked up with the

greasy drummin' an' a drinkin' menace-to-society and former inmate Miles, a step Hank to this

day can not cease to regret. BUT... fate is evil and you can not escape your destiny,

especially the destiny to WASTE YER LIFE ON A PUNKROCK CAREER...!!! Three's a company, so

when they met up one moonless night in the Louisiana swamp with former satan-whorshippin' and

"bikini-kill!!!"-screamin' Lorena, there was no stopping to this fatal and deathly mixture of

60ties Trashbeat, Deltablues, Girlschool and Slayer. On a mission to give the world greasy

hair and lonesome dykes at last a chance to catch up with some hot n' rumblin' music, three

of their bassplayin' Lorenas were sucked into Black Holes by incredible Alien Forces, who

envied the Band for their roarin', tube-screamin', deafenin' sound. After many shows in and

out of space, they decided to vanish into the hellfires of Rock'n Roll in 2004, leaving

nothing but a trace of burnt rubber and bloody hankerchiefs on the sidewalk. Their shows will

forever be remembered legendary - turning straight girls into leather dykes, the floor into a

dyke-moshpit, and men into estaticly cryin' an' a sobbin' lumbs of selfpitty. AND NOW THEY'RE

BACK... TO KICK YOUR ASS!!!
